Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleIs Yair Netanyahu feeling sheepish after being banned by Facebook?
The prime minister’s salty-tongued son, who has caught a baleful of flak lately for a series of social media posts deemed racist, including one calling Palestinians “animals,” is apparently spending time with another type of beast.
A spokesperson for the Netanyahu family has sent reporters pictures of Yair with chickens and sheep, on a farm somewhere. According to Telegraph reporter Raf Sanchez, the pictures came with no captions or context. Just Yair in the animal farm.
For reasons unclear to me, the Netanyahu family spokesman just sent out a series of pictures of Yair with farm animals. No captions, no context were given.

Some think Netanyahu, who says he is a vegan, may be hoping to use the pictures of him in the hay to rehab his public image. In other words, putting lipstick on a pig.
